  1. 5Th Gen On The Blue Ridge 5 Jun 2015 22:05 [image: 367c4ec5101d6ca01d0f788491a0d940.jpg] Got in a great ride on the Blue Ridge today. Managed to slip between storms.

  3. Are Vfr's Chick Magnets? 24 Nov 2013 03:22 [image: Posted Image] Are VFR's chick magnets? You tell me. BTW, yes that is my '01.
  4. Delkevic 14" Stainless- '98 5Th Gen 10 Aug 2013 17:10 The only problem I'm having with with the Delki is the connector pipe. After a month, it started turning a brass color, now it has a lot of dark spots (some as big as 2") on it. Anybody else have this problem? The…
  5. Indy motogp roll call 9 Aug 2013 20:01 Making final plans to ride from Virginia Beach to Indy. Will probably get in late Friday.
  6. Strange Surging On My 2001 5 Aug 2013 20:46 If it were a bad plug, would it run good again after the stumble?
  7. Strange Surging On My 2001 4 Aug 2013 19:29 I just put new plugs in about 700 miles ago. I topped off ( a little over half a tank) with some premium to see if that would help. I just went out and rode about 50 miles with no problems. Not sure what to think....…
  8. Strange Surging On My 2001 4 Aug 2013 13:48 Went out for a quick ride this morning, everything was good until after accelerating hard coming out of a turn, the bike lost a lot of power. It felt like it was only running on 2 or 3 cylinders. The exhaust sound was…
  9. Need 5Th Gen Thermostat Replacement Diy 12 May 2013 13:30 I have a whole series of pics from my tstat replacement I did last fall, I just never wrote it all out. I'll try to put one together.
  10. Most miles on a 5th Gen? 14 Sep 2012 00:37 My 2001 has just turned over 11,000 miles. Oops, thought this was the least amount of miles...J.K. I just picked it up last month...give me a couple of years.,....
  11. 5th Generation Windscreens 3 Sep 2012 23:03 Has anyone ordered and used the windscreens out of Hong Kong that are on E-Bay? I don't feel like spending $100 for a zero gravity and was wondering about the quality, fit and finsih of these.
  12. 2001 VFR W/ Delkavic Tri-Oval Exhaust 25 Aug 2012 18:31 I just installed new Delcavic slip-on on my 2001. What a good system! For $175 it can't be beat. It took about 20 minutes to remove the stock exhaust and install the Delk. The fit and finish is as good as anything else…
  13. Back to VFRD 29 Jul 2012 16:11 Back in December I had some idiot make a U-Turn right in front of a pack of cars that I was behind. They all had to lock up the brakes, I put the brakes on, had an out to my left in an open lane, problem was that the…
  14. Back to VFRD 29 Jul 2012 00:26 After 8 months since my accident I'm back with a (new to me) 2001 VFR 800. I picked it up for $3K, had only 10,000 miles on it and other than needing a bath, looked like it came off the showroom floor. I have to say…
  15. What did you own before your 6th Gen? 5 Jun 2011 22:26 1995 CB1000 and 2000 RC51. Got rid of both once I got the 6th Gen. I really loved them both, but the VFR simply replaced all attributes of both bikes.
  16. Need Help Please...Gotta Leak! 18 Jan 2010 21:30 Well, last weekend I tightened every hose clamp I could get to like I said. It leaked just a little bit. We have had warmer weather (40-55F) this last week and I rode the bike 3 days, and no leak whatsoever. So the…
  17. Need Help Please...Gotta Leak! 3 Jan 2010 19:06 [image: View Post]DougFromIndy, on 03 January 2010 - 01:38 PM, said: It is loose clamps on coolant hose every 6th gen comes from factory with LOOSE CLAMPS and they pee on yer garage floor. tighten each and every one of…
  18. Need Help Please...Gotta Leak! 3 Jan 2010 17:45 Thanks Bailyrock. It is definetly antifreeze that is leaking. I pulled the left side cover and my reservoir was pretty low. Not dry but under the lower level mark. I have looked around from what I can see and dont see a…
  19. Need Help Please...Gotta Leak! 3 Jan 2010 17:05 OK, here's what I have going on. The Interceptor has been sitting idle for about three weeks (been riding my "new" 77 CB550 instead). Was working in the garage yesterday so I put the bikes out in the driveway. It was…
  20. Oil Change 1 Mar 2009 22:10 Thanks for all of the input. I really don't think I over-tightened it when I put it on (maybe I ate too much wheaties that day), I always lube the seal, and definetly had the correct sized socket on the 17mm head.…
  21. Oil Change 1 Mar 2009 18:50 Last weekend I decided to change the oil on the '04. I warmed it up a bit and then let it cool some. I could not for the life of me get the filter off. It is the K&N with the 17mm nut on the end. After I stripped the…
